Slade, T-Rex, Sweet, Middle of the Road from the seventies my sister listened to. Hasn't they all ended sad? I liked many of the songs and still do.

I remember that very little me liked the loos of the singer from Middle of the road and the poster of David Essex my sister left when I took over her room :-)

 

 

Davis Essex was such a heartthrob back in the day, the real poster boy , he's still rather handsome

 

There were great live bands around then, The Who, The Clash, Sex Pistols, Pink Floyd .

ruthless entertainer. He threw a good and genuine show at Nokia Arena. ❤️He spoke and paid attention to the audience, he was present. Someone had made the right choreographies for the dancers. It's a terrible waste of skill: nothing more than a puff of smoke and a couple of cross steps.

Robbie Williams in Stockholm: Northerners on their feet, bare ass and therapy confessions

 

While you're still eagerly waiting for Robbie Williams in Lithuania, I had the privilege of seeing him early, as we VIPs usually do. Today I will tell you about the concert of this global star, who has sold 75 million albums worldwide, in my city Stockholm.

 

I've been a Robbie Williams listener (I don't like the word "fan" - it smacks of pathology and addiction) for thirty years - maybe longer, since Take That - and this is the first time I've seen him sing live. With the music of Robbie Williams, I grew up and thus matured my musical taste - a child of the eighties, lulled by soft pop music, accepts and loves music with electric guitars - and it brings me a cosmic lot of emotions and memories.

 

"What did you wait so long for?" you think. You know, I don't know - it was probably easier not to go and not to deal with the rising emotions; I was also afraid that he would take me out at the sight of him and I would have a fit, like those sneaky girls used to do at Beatles concerts in the sixties. But there was absolutely nothing like that, just warmth and the feeling of experiencing something very familiar, and familiar things always create a sense of security. Venue: Avicii Arena Stockholm Sweden Date: March 1 Wednesday ("I heard it's Little Saturday for you today? You made it Monday Tuesday and today you're pouring, you f***ers," Robbie Williams subtly mocked the Swedes, also recalling and telling a story about how he was in the shower at a gym in Los Angeles in the nineties met Ulf, a member of the then absolutely cult Swedish band Ace of Base (not missing the opportunity, as is typical of him, to refer to what he said was Ulf's enormous dick and to pull himself in the tooth for the reverse) and how Ulf was glad that Take That didn't get a meeting with Clive Davis (the old man is now in his nineties, but in the nineties he was a cult hit producer that all the divas, prima donnas and kings of the day wanted to get to. For example, Bruce Springsteen, Santana,Whitney Houston , Aerosmith, Pink Floyd, Westlife, Barry Manilow, Billy Joel, Janis Japlin.

 

Duration: two hours of non-stop, pleasantly palate-tickling entertainment. Badass Robbie Williams of cult boyband Take That, who doesn't shy away from showing off his bare bum, brought the otherwise reserved Swedish audience to their feet at the Avicii Arena, and the crowd screamed, stomped and clapped and begged for more. One hundred percent unprecedented entertainment (in my opinion, the Lithuanian language is too poor to define the meaning of English entertaining), delivered in a way that can only be implemented by an absolute ace, god, professional in his field. The showman and entertainer in disguise sang his hits "Rock DJ", "Feel", "Strong", "Monsoon", igniting the audience with his signature concert "Let me Entertain You"; engaged with the audience in an immediate and engaging way, was not afraid to appear vulnerable and told his personal story in a brutally frank manner with his audience: "This concert will be entertainment for you and therapy for me," said Robbie. Like all spontaneous last-minute freaks (hello, I'd be here), I buy the ticket just a few hours before the concert and, dressed in what I call that look in the "hipster bum" style, comfortably, if I still need to be taken out, I run to the arena for a drink coffee On that day, the Globen Shopping center is bustling with uncontrollable large numbers of people - in parallel, a football match is taking place in another arena and the shopping center is drowning in a sea of ​​angry football fans wrapped in fan scarves, and everyone needs to eat, have a coffee or a drink. There are as many as four arenas in the Globen arena complex: "Avicii" (formerly "Globen" - now renamed in honor of the Swedish musician Avicii, who died in 2018), "Tele2" (they mainly host smaller concerts and football matches), "Hovet" (even smaller arena,

 

After queuing up at the entrance and going through security, I finally climb all the way up to the roof of that giant ball (this arena is the largest spherical building in the world) to see a world-class star who knows and understands his worth very well and or because of his worth, or anyway, it's a bit late to show up - the break between the warm-up band (Lufhouse - electronic music from Australia with Robbie's vocals - I'm going to the club while listening) seems unbearably long (about half an hour). The arena is close to full - fourteen thousand spectators are bustling, while sixteen can fit - calm down, I understand that in your place in Vilnius, the arena is bursting at the seams with the performances of stars of this caliber, but this is Stockholm, and the locals are spoiled by the abundance of events, which here, as they say, it from the cornucopia, and here I am only naming you the next six months: Michael Buble, Wu Tang Clan and NAS, Post Malone, Metallica, Beyonce, Cirque du Soleil, Depeche Mode, Peter Gabriel, The Weeknd, Elton John will entertain the people of Stockholm for two nights from queues, like Queen B by the way, not to mention the arrival of the prima donna of the scene Madonna , Europe and so on, and where else are the local Swedish gods.

 

My beloved Stockholm, you see, is the New York of Scandinavia, and it pays to live here just because of the events. Now about that crowd - they didn't do any shame, as they say - you might not believe it, but some years ago (or maybe more like a decade) at the Despatches concert, the Swedes were stiff, tense and behaved quite passively, as if they were supposed to, practically dozing off sluggishly swaying something to the beat. This time, thank God, they're actively interacting, Robbie singing along, shouting, and other ways of expressing submission and approval. Williams doesn't let me forget his British roots, swears a lot on stage and calls himself Robbie f***g Williams, which causes uncontrollable giggles from the audience - I seem to be sitting with the fans, because they film practically the entire concert and blast all Robbie's hits into my ear. I also sing along, but at least it's in tune. I'll give you a quick picture of how I used to buy DVDs of Robbie Williams concerts a good twenty years ago in one of my first office jobs, where a scared Russian - a street vendor - would walk around the office and offer us pirated CDs and DVDs. In those days, only the golden youth, or the youth anymore, bought the originals.

 

Now, as an author myself, I'm embarrassed and sorry for this, but back in the day it was the only way to see my idol - I know you lovely Mailenials won't believe it, but there was no YouTube or other streamed content even with commercials, and still there used to be such music channels as MTV or others, which broadcast music videos of artists. The current Robbie is no longer the wild and young Robbie who used to kiss and cuddle with his crazy fans right on stage, drown in a sea of ​​bras, thongs and teddy bears, or do drugs with Oasis at Glastonbury - no (pst, at the concert, by the way, you will hear one of Oasis' hits). The singer, who struggled with drug and alcohol addiction for many years ("I was emptying a bottle of vodka every night when I was only nineteen"), who spent decades battling his inner demons, is now twenty-three years sober, successfully married and raising four children. The crowd has always liked successful stories, a fairy tale with a happy ending: a princess (wife of American actress Ayda Field ) falls in love with a frog and saves him from a curse with a kiss, with love; therefore, Robbie's personal story makes him even more compelling and one with whom fans strongly identify.

 

And there are legends about Robbie's immeasurable charisma and magnetism for a reason: Robbie manages an audience of tens of thousands with absolute ease, without effort and without straining, as if he were a self-confident surgeon who loves his work, thoroughly cleaning his hands before surgery, and with pleasure dissecting patients with a scalpel. playing Mozart in his headphones, assisted by the nurses, barely smiling, occasionally swaying to the beat. Remember his legendary concerts at Knebworth in 2003, where he entertained 375,000 fans over three nights? (you can find it on YouTube by searching for Robbie Williams at Knebworth, or on the DVD Robbie Williams: Live At Knebworth). This concert is treated as the biggest musical event in British history and there you can see the artist's talent in all its beauty. The nearly fifty-year-old performer has maintained excellent physical shape: in an interview, he said that he cannot afford to be old and fat - only one or the other, so he actively does sports and runs around the stage like a rabid teenager, although, of course, he does not shy away from showing his age. and proudly recounts a thirty-three-year career (Take That formed in the 1990s, Robbie began his solo career in 1996) while also performing some of Take That's hits.

 

I'll leave it to you to guess whether, while not shying away from posing naked in front of the camera (like on the cover of your latest album XXV), we got a chance to see the performer's seat at the concert - here's a full program for fans of the butt, both visual and verbal - in fact, a bit too much for my taste, this seems to be a British thing. You're in for a really good show, I can promise you that. Six stars out of five, because there is nothing better than that on Earth.
